Debut JAMIEshow MUSE, Lilly

 JAMIEshow Doll debuted a collection of five 12" resin ball-jointed dolls. This is a promotional description of the one I purchased:

Designed by our new designer OWENSU, Lilly Basic Premier doll is a 12" (1/6 Scale) Resin Ball Jointed Fashion Doll.  

With 17 points of articulation and made of JAMIEshow J Resin.

Basic Dolls will come as nude dolls; however, the Premiere dolls will include a Corset and Panties Lingerie Set, Earrings, Shoes and a rooted Wig Cap. 

Doll stand and dressing ball hands are included with all basic dolls.

JAMIEshow Muses Basic Dolls are proportioned so they can wear most 

other 12" doll clothes including Barbie, IT  and other similarly sized dolls .

I find the range of motion very good but I think I will wire my doll as holding the pose will be better.

 Lilly wears a size 4 wig. This is the same size as Dominion Doll, Superdoll's House of Zenith, Kingdom Doll's Monarchs, Fashion Royalty and other 12" dolls in my collection. 

 In the photo below, she is wearing "Late Night Dream," a gown made for IT's Victoire Roux.

The surface finish on the resin is matte. The body blushing is conservative and appropriate. Her face-up is pleasant. 

The earring holes are placed properly. The stand is a miniature version of the 16" JAMIEshow stands. They're the best in the industry.

I'm not the biggest fan of the rooted wig caps but hers fits very well. The Muses come with a bald head cap for those who wish to use wigs (like me.)

The pre-order price was $425. plus postage. Buyers were offered a 3-payment option. 

I ordered a set of flat feet for $35. as well.

There were many (16) outfits available to purchase but I have a ton of 12" doll fashions so I decided to forego that opportunity. 

These were favorites: 

The sleeve puffs and bow come off leaving a strapless top. So cute!

All dolls, fashions and accessories have been sold out. If you wish to see what was available, you can go to this link:  https://www.jamieshow.us/jamieshow-muses.html

 

Terra, My Pandemic Convention Doll

 It's difficult to forget that Terra was a convention souvenir during a pandemic. With time, I hope I just see her as another one of my gorgeous Kingdom Dolls.

Terra came with magnetic horns and hoof shoes. She is the most unusual Kingdom Doll yet.

Kingdom Doll Severine Gift Set

The fabulous Severine Frost Gift Set was offered for sale on 12/12/20 and shipped at the end of January 2021. Below is part of the back story of this doll who is the last of the 00 Fabulous line.

Severine Frost, code name (Miami) 

Ms. Frost wraps up our Blockbuster Storyline with an explosive conclusion.  Find out more about this mysterious Interpol agent's story upon her release at the end of January 2021.

All questions will be answered!!!...........

"What happens to Electra and does she succeed in her evil master plan"

"Who is Professor Patrick Lovestick and which side is he really on?"

"Just why did Athena Washington have a picture of Severine in that TOP SECRET file?"

[recap].......Penelope’s goal was to secure the sample before it could be used and return it intact to headquarters for testing. Unfortunately, the only way of the island was to dive into the ocean, swim out to the yacht where Interpol’s Severine Frost awaited her return.

"But will Lady P save the day?"......................

She is a wonderful addition to my doll collection. Her fashions are great mix-and-match pieces.

The W Club Liaisons

Lam Loves Robert Tonner's Tyle-Body-Size Fashions.

The original Tyler body is a fair match to Lam with these differences: Lam has a slimmer waist and hips. Her bust is a bit smaller as well. Lam's extra 1/2" of height doesn't make a discernable difference. I like my dolls in shorter skirts anyway. 

Lam is modeling Robert Tonner's outfit from Carol Barrie called "Hollywood Treasure." Her Harrod's tote with teddy bear and silk scarf are from the Purse of the Month Club. Wig by Ilaria.

Mothership Dania Zarr™ Dressed Doll The Fashion Royalty® Collection: RETROFUTURE

 Mothership was a W Club exclusive doll offered in December, 2019. Those who pre-ordered experienced the longest delay ever of more than a year before she was actually delivered in January of 2021.

She does not disappoint!

Here are  two of IT's promotional photos:

Gorgeous, right?

Everything is exactly as it looks. 

The bodysuit is a weighty metal as is her neckpiece. I have not removed her arm coverings so I'm not sure what they're made of. Her eye shield is a flexible, thin metal item. It's cool for the alien look. if you're going for that, but otherwise it messes up her hair.

Everything is constructed beautifully except the boots. They are a nightmare. 

Mine had a part of the surface eaten away by excess glue. Not only that, when I put them on, keeping ALL THE STRAPS OPENED UP, one strap near the front of her foot broke. They do not stand flat on a surface. 

I have written to customer service for a replacement. They've contacted their factory in China. I suppose I'll be waiting for another year. 

It took nearly 40 minutes to close the straps on the boots. (There are five straps with buckles on each plus a zipper.) Then I found another defect. One of the buckles was not attached properly so it couldn't be closed at all.  I have the loose straps taped to her leg and/or boot for now.  Sad!

I like the black coat. The belt that is supposed to fit around the waist of the coat is not large enough. There is a lot of fabric that gets gathered when the belt is on and it just doesn't make it. Of course, if you were to attempt to use that belt, you'd have to remove her bodysuit.

Both the bodysuit and the neckpiece are two parts that snap together via magnets. They are beautifully polished. The bodysuit is embellished with inset rhinestones front and back. 

Another design touch I really like is that the earrings are facing forward. So often one has to look at the side of a doll's head to see what the earrings look like. 

I recommend adding this doll to your collection if you have not done so already. The current average eBay price is just south of $300. It has dropped from about $400 in December.

Her original price was $175.
